I really cant figure out if they're trying to be insulting to trans people, or not? I'm confused. Its a clip from the Monty Python movie The Life of Brian, and it was filmed in 1979. Thoughts? | |||

XD Monty Python has no true point other than to make people laugh. And it was the 70's, so it was a whole different time period and media. I suppose if I had to choose it'd be pro. But that's because I adore Monty Python. |

One of the Monty Python people was gay, i know that. (I just dont know what one of them, heh) And i dont see this as transphobic. I dont see it as pro-trans either. I see it, like Jazz said, as comedy from the 70's (that for that time period was most likely pro-trans because it was not a widely addressed issue in TV or movies at the time)

I don't see it as transphobic. I think it's hilarious actually. xD If I was trans, I'd probably love it even more.
